Yes, acids and alkalis are two different types of substances. Acids typically have a sour taste, turn litmus paper red, and release hydrogen ions when dissolved in water. Alkalis, on the other hand, have a bitter taste, turn litmus paper blue, and release hydroxide ions when dissolved in water.
Blue/Violet/Indigo . depending on the strength of the alkali. Water (neutral ) is green Acids ' Red/Orange/Yellow.
Depends on the acid and alkali. But in most cases Hydrogen or Carbon Dioxide.
Lithium hydroxide is the strongest alkali in the alkali metal group.
No, lead oxide is not an alkali. Lead oxide is a chemical compound composed of lead and oxygen, and it is typically considered a basic oxide due to its ability to react with acids to form salts. Alkalis are typically hydroxide compounds, such as sodium hydroxide or potassium hydroxide.
The metal that reacts with acids is likely to be reactive, such as alkali metals like sodium or potassium. These metals are not suitable for dishwashing as they can react violently with water or acids, producing heat and potentially causing burns or explosions. It is important to use non-reactive metals such as stainless steel for dishwashing.

Alkali
No an alkali is the opposite of an acid. Alkali = basic; acid = acidic.
alkali is used to reduce acid and acid is used to reduce alkali
acids
alkali
All alkali metals and alkali earth metals below calcium react vigorously with acids.

Neither
No, mint is not an alkali. Mint is a type of herb that is commonly used in culinary and medicinal applications. Alkalis are a different category of substances that have a high pH level and can neutralize acids.
No. Alkali's and acids are an separate ends of the pH scale, the pH of acids being 1, 2, 3, 4 and 5 (strong to weak) and the pH of alkali's being 11, 12, 13, 14 and 15 (weak to strong). Examples of acids are hydrochloric acid (strong) and vinegar (weak). Toothpaste is an example of a weak alkali.
Magnesium oxide is a basic compound, also known as an alkali. It reacts with acids to form salts and water.
